I think that "status=disabled" of hsi2c_9 is not hack. The overwrite
is possible for Device-tree. But, there is just difference how to
support them with some method.

Except for touchkey, all peripheral device are same on both tm2 and
tm2e. There are only small difference for a few property value.

To understand the difference between tm2 and tm2e, I made the patch
(it is not complete version). If we implement the following patch, we
support both tm2 and tm2e. So, I think that it is not complex to
understand the h/w difference between tm2 and tm2e.
